But holster selection is just as important, partly because it makes carrying concealed easier, and partly because if your holster is uncomfortable, you won\u2019t be carrying when you should be.<\/p>\n<p>Many gun stores have ranges where you can try different handguns, but to try a holster you most often have to buy it. So, some holster advice is a good thing. I\u2019ve been carrying concealed for more than half my life, but I thought hearing from a true holster specialist might be more beneficial.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Barham has worked for Galco Gunleather for 21 years. He grew up around guns and took courses from esteemed trainers like Chuck Taylor and Massad Ayoob. In addition to 11 years in the Army\u2014to include a tour in Afghanistan\u2014Barham is also a graduate of Gunsite, Tactical Response and Front Sight firearms academies. Barham has been carrying concealed handguns for as long as I have, so I asked him to share some of his expertise.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Richard-Mann-and-Mike-Barham.jpg\" alt=\"Richard-Mann-and-Mike-Barham\" class=\"wp-image-292601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Richard-Mann-and-Mike-Barham.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Richard-Mann-and-Mike-Barham-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Richard-Mann-and-Mike-Barham-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Richard-Mann-and-Mike-Barham-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Richard-Mann-and-Mike-Barham-670x420.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The author (standing) has trained with Mike Barham (kneeling) and considers him a subject matter expert when it comes to holsters.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-finding-balance\"><strong>Finding Balance<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The first tidbit of wisdom Barham offered was, \u201cEvery concealment holster must balance three competing factors: concealability, accessibility and comfort. With almost all holster designs, as one factor increases, the others decrease. A highly concealable holster is often less comfortable and accessible, and a holster that offers fast access, or one that\u2019s comfortable, is almost always less concealable.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters.jpg\" alt=\"Galco-holsters\" class=\"wp-image-292602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-670x420.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters.jpg\" alt=\"Galco-holsters\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-292602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holsters-670x420.jpg 670w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Galco prides themselves in offering custom-made, high-quality holsters \u2026 without the wait.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Of course, regardless of the holster you choose, gun size plays into the equation, too. But, with gun size, there\u2019s balance that must be found as well. Select a gun that\u2019s large enough that you can shoot and manage it effectively, but also small enough to practically conceal. This seemingly never-ending search to find the right holster is similar to trying to find the right life partner. We date to see how compatible we are, and in truth, that\u2019s the best way to find a gun\/holster combination. The problem is\u2014just like with dating\u2014trying different guns and holsters gets expensive.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-owb-vs-iwb\"><strong>OWB Vs. IWB<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A big decision is whether to carry inside the waistband (IWB) or outside the waistband (OWB). I do both as weather and need dictates\u2014and that\u2019s not a bad approach, especially if you don\u2019t change carry location. As for IWB carry, Barham said, \u201cAn IWB holster is generally easier to conceal since half the gun is inside your pants. However, many find IWB carry uncomfortable. This discomfort can be greatly ameliorated with a belt and pants that are 2 inches larger than your normal American vanity size. Also, IWB holsters can be slightly slower to draw from than OWBs because they press the handgun against the body.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster.jpg\" alt=\"IWB-1911-holster\" class=\"wp-image-292603\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-670x420.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster.jpg\" alt=\"IWB-1911-holster\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-292603\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IWB-1911-holster-670x420.jpg 670w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Because IWB holsters keep the handgun\u2019s grip closer to your body, they\u2019re usually a bit slower to draw from.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As for OWB, Barham said, \u201cOWB carry is more comfortable than IWB carry because a lot of people aren\u2019t willing to adapt their wardrobes to IWB carry. OWB holsters are also slightly faster\u2014we\u2019re talking fractions of a second\u2014on the draw. But, depending on the belt attachment method, IWB holsters with belt clips or straps are usually quicker to take on and off than OWB holsters with conventional belt slots. However, a paddle-type OWB is usually very comfortable and very convenient; it\u2019s very fast and easy to put on or take off.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster.jpg\" alt=\"OWB-Yaqui-holster\" class=\"wp-image-292605\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-670x420.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster.jpg\" alt=\"OWB-Yaqui-holster\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-292605\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Yaqui-holster-670x420.jpg 670w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">OWB holsters don\u2019t have to be large and bulky.

Barham said, \u201cA mild butt-rear rake is sometimes preferable for appendix carry, but it\u2019s detrimental to concealment with a holster worn on or behind the hip. With a holster worn on or behind the hip, a mild butt-forward cant often helps with concealment. However, the added movement of \u201cbreaking\u201d the wrist to draw from an angled holster can be slightly slower and less natural than when drawing from a neutral cant\/vertical holster worn on or very close to the hip.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting.jpg\" alt=\"Galco-holster-fitting\" class=\"wp-image-292607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-670x420.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting.jpg\" alt=\"Galco-holster-fitting\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-292607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Galco-holster-fitting-670x420.jpg 670w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Many of Galco\u2019s holsters are form-fitted by master leather craftsmen to give them that custom look and feel.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Extreme rake is absolutely required for crossdraw carry, and though very practical when riding in a vehicle, it\u2019s largely fallen out of favor.

Barham said this argument is a can of worms but offered that, \u201cLeather is traditional, warm to the touch and often beautiful. More importantly, leather holsters form themselves to the contours of the wearer\u2019s body over time. This often results in greater comfort. Polymer holsters\u2014generally Kydex\u2014are nearly maintenance free, withstand moisture well and require no break-in. Some also think they\u2019re faster, but that\u2019s largely dependent on the shooter.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock.jpg\" alt=\"OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock\" class=\"wp-image-292608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-670x420.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock.jpg\" alt=\"OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-292608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/OWB-Kydex-holster-Glock-670x420.jpg 670w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Some believe polymer holsters are faster to draw from, but this is more opinion than fact.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-factory-or-custom\"><strong>Factory Or Custom?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Barham suggested, \u201cThere\u2019s really very little a boutique holster can do that can\u2019t be done just as well by a production holster. At Galco we take pride in our premium holsters being essentially \u2018custom made without the wait.\u2019 We have a small army of master craftsmen whose hands touch every <em>professional-grade<\/em> holster we make. Galco has 50-plus years of experience designing and executing practical holsters.\u201d But Barham added, \u201cCustom holsters certainly have their place, and very experienced and knowledgeable shooters can often take advantage of custom subtleties. However, I believe most custom touches will elude the overwhelming majority of gun carriers.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster.jpg\" alt=\"Custom-leather-holster\" class=\"wp-image-292606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-670x420.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1021\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster.jpg\" alt=\"Custom-leather-holster\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-292606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-696x436.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Custom-leather-holster-670x420.jpg 670w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1021px) 100vw, 1021px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Depending on the handgun, a custom holster could be the only viable option.

This is critical, most especially when it comes to consistent positioning for speed of draw and proper retention.\u201d I agree with Barham but would add that, in some cases, a custom holster might be the only or the best option, particularly with unpopular or brand-new handguns for which there are few factory-made holsters. I\u2019d also add that you should be careful; \u201ccustom\u201d doesn\u2019t always mean exquisite or best.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-it-s-a-process\"><strong>It\u2019s A Process<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The last bit of advice Barham offered was \u201cEvery holster design and position is a compromise. You have to weigh the advantages and disadvantages, and then decide where your priorities lie. Only then can you decide on the right holster.\u201d And even then, you\u2019ll probably end up experimenting with a half-dozen holsters.
